They care about your kids. Its not a popularity contest. My child is doing so much better in school since moving to this school district. I even want to participate in all the activities such as the fall festival and PTO. I love it!!!! Hooray for a great school and great teachers.

Hi, my name is Turner and I attend Fruitdale High School. Every other school talks about us because they think that we are nothing. We have great athletics and an incredible education system. We take pride in our school and I absolutely love it. I am a cheerleader and I play softball it is awesome.

I am a parent and I have 3 boys that all went to FHS. I think it's a GREAT School. It maybe a small school but small is good. The teachers there are great. You will not hear me complain.

To the person that said their children will never attend FHS I feel for you. I think some people are worried about prestige or who is wearing what -that doesn't matter. Our test scores are the best in the county, I teach at FHS and Love it. I have taught at other schools - here at Fruitdale we don't have to worry about safety. We all are like one big happy family. We do learn at FHS and lots of students have left and become teachers, nurses, engineers, physical therapists, and lawyers. I would take another look at FHS!

My husband and i attended fruitdale. Now both our kids go there. We at fhs have a lot to be thankful for. We as parents are doing all we know to do for the students. Like any other school, there are some who think they are above discipline, but the parents stand up when it comes to a child being bullied. Coach mason is a wonderful coach as teacher. He took us to the playoffs for the first time in years! to him, academics comes first then football. We need more teachers, coaches like him. I am proud to be called a pirate! go big purple!!!

I have 3 children that attend Fruitdale. My husband graduated from there. We may be a small school but we have worked hard to better ourselves over the past years. I am a very involved parent and I can honestly say I am proud of FHS. My oldest daughter is on the JV cheer squad and they were just awarded superior overall at camp. They were also invited to cheer at the Capital Bowl in Orlando. This is just one of the many accomplishments of FHS, we have a lot to be proud of!

Anyways I just would like to share to everybody that our school is a good school to suggest enrolling your children in. Eventhough our school may not have over 600 and something odd students attending there every day. I think that helps people get to know one another without confusing that person with someone else. I would like to add about our new teachers this year. Our school was grateful to have Mrs. Ankerson aboard as a math teacher and to some of us a friend at Fruitdale, and I would like to welcome Coach Mason, a wonderful History teacher and a very sweet person to know.I hope U enjoy FHS I do.
